I think I can read there mines " Yea Right".

That's funny, I have had it go both ways LoL. Actually had a couple of the younger ones start asking me questions about what I tie and how to fish them. Which I mostly tie jigs just for my own use. They seemed guinley interested in learning about it. And one told me she was going to tell her dad about using Sally's because he did a little jig tying. It really gets em going though when you start looking at the sparkley kind.

Did not tick me. I just want the thread to stay on tract. No sense taking time tying and then having problems with your head cement. Thought it was needed to understand that and I am not a beginner.

I cut the brush down to just a few bristles on the Sally's brush that comes with the bottle. You can also pull the bristles out and stick a needle in the hole and super glue it. Sally's also has a very thin version I get at Walgreens. Like to see some flies addicted if you get a chance. I fly fish some at Cumberland River below Wolf Creek Dam and always can get some ideas!!

I'm lucky enough to have some flies that addicted angler tied. I can tell you one thing - my paws are waaay to big to tie those tiny little things ! I don't know how the fly fishing guys do such intricate work.

That post about getting a guart of lacquer is a great idea !

I would be glad to tie some for you Ifish. Give me some information. Species, when you intend to fish .hatch and water conditions and so on. What area are you in so I can match to your aquatic situation.
